Interesting. I recall a woman from Texas that had ordered wooden ware from the infamous house of cards in Mississippi. Seems that Russell was delayed in getting the wooden ware out to her (surprise!) so she cancelled the order and ordered elsewhere or simply "made do". She posted that when she got the refund that Russell told her that they would still ship the wooden ware to her when it came in, which she said they did. It wasn't really clear, but I feel pretty confident that Russell shipped it to her at no charge. If they did ship it to her at n/c I wonder who actually paid for that order?

It is likely an attack on the web site where the person registers then turns the bot loose (sometimes a week or two or months later). I had to block whole regions of the globe to get it to stop while admin on a website. I'm sure Barry does something similar.

Re: Robert Russell is a fraud

Man, I hope this works out for everybody involved, including RRussell. He's a young fellow to have dug such a deep hole and there's a lot of good folks who need to get this matter settled so they can let go of some pent up anger that ain't good for them.

I've made comments both jokingly and seriously about this situation but from here on out I'm going to refrain from commenting on this situation *unless* it is something positive for all concerned.
